Its just a general all round administration job for a non profit members IT company.

This is probably going to sound really bad on my part but I'll say it anyway. I'm not exactly a "small" person so when I walk into interviews I always feel that I don't get them cause of my appearance, even though I'm all dressed up in my suit with business shoes and hair all pulled back.

Anyway, when I walked into this interview this afternoon I felt very at ease cause the lady was a biggish person. To me, that gives me more of a chance cause shes not going to discriminate against me being the person I am :) Shes one of those very loud very boisterious type people. I like them, they are funny :D

Anyway, that's just me and how I feel. I know when I was first looking for work I was looking for retail and no one would look at me cause I was a bigger size person. But, as I said, I am who I am, they can go **** themselves.

hehe :) i need all the practice i can get

Well i just got this booklet called gizmo and its got all these useless inventions in it - robotic kitchens and other crap. thought i would share.

But how can you get that "nice person" image over in like 10 minutes :|

I can be the nicest person I am but that doesn't count for much. You need to be around me for a while before I'll start being the nice relaxed easy going person I am. Otherewise you get ****ed over.

    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
